This gif is real.
The US didn’t even get the excuse of being forced to pay obscenely high war reparations to justify their fascism. Instead, it’s dissatisfaction with inflation which, in turn, is the predictable combination of the exponential depletion of scarce resources (real estate, water) and the consolidation of property into the hands of an ultra wealthy minority. If one must frame the emergence of fascism in a “war” context, then the cause is plutocrat beligerantes strategically fighting a social class war while most of everyone else think it’s a culture war.
I dont think Elon Musk is a nazi. I’ve never seen any evidence that he is a nazi nor have I ever seen any presented. I think he is an asshole that harasses people for his personal satisfaction. He is so rich that no matter what happens he, his children, and all their children will all enjoy the highest quality lives available. There may also be some chemical addiction mixed in there as well as some mental illness.
Lookit his face. Makes me wanna slap the text FUCKTARD on it
Ngl, I was sceptical since still images are not a good representation of what’s really going on when people are moving around, but then I checked out the video. Good lord, he even did it twice.
Musk went from being the Henry Ford of our times to the Henry Ford of our times.
Ha!
Remember when everyone hated on regular Russian citizens for not forming a rebellious revolution against Putin and assassinating him in his sleep? For not shooting every Russian oligarch and everyone who rubber stamped the invasion of Ukraine? Remember when people called them cowards and “as good as nazis” for being complacent and not getting up and doing something about it?
Where are you keyboard warriors now that the USA needs you?
Just sayin’

The same people did nothing as the US invaded Afghanistan and Iraq, and enabled Israel. They were never consistent.
If we’re being specific I’d say those people cheered on Iraq and Afghanistan as well. Bipartisan war hawks.
Shouldn’t be just saying, morons need harsh realities shoved in their face.
Being the best armed country in the world, the US is even worse for not following through
With how .ml is fanboying Trump for saving TikTok right now, you lot would bitch if somebody assassinated the president anyway.
I yet have to see a post fanboying trump at all.
They literally banned someone for attacking Trump yesterday. You aren’t paying attention.
for attacking Trump
attacking him for what, I wonder
If somebody says “Trump is shitty”, and tankies throw a fit about that and ban them, I don’t need any more nuance than that. It isn’t the first time commies have worked hand-in-hand with nazis, and it won’t be the last.
IDK, I know a lot of neo-nazis who’d say ‘fuck trump’ in response to him being willing to work with Israel
Any time I see a lib complaining about being banned on .ml it’s almost always because they earned it by saying something xenophobic or reactionary
The person banned was a communist. He was banned for “defending” Biden by saying he was not worse than Trump.
But hey, I don’t really care what insane nonsense tankies spew on their own instances, if they wanna hug a nazi then that’s on them.
Not an ml, but I think it’s too simplistic to see things this black and white.
These select individuals just want to shoe horn in their ridiculous feud with .ml into every single comment they make.
We’re being real loose with the term ‘fanboy’ now, huh
no looser than tankies are with morals, huh
pot, kettle
Trump brought tiktok back but with more censorship. “Free Palestine” is now banned on TikTok. Last I checked .ml was still playing with RedNote.
Living in a country that did something against putins predacessor and are now enjoying democracy as a result. This could be you.
In the meantime while everyone is looking at Elon Donald is signing executive orders to
- Grant top secret security clearances to White House staff without going through traditional vetting procedures.
- Open the Alaska wilderness to more oil and gas drilling.
- Eliminate environmental justice programs across the government, which are aimed at protecting poor communities from excess pollution.
- Move to end birthright citizenship, which is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment, for the children of undocumented immigrants.
- Declare migrant crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border to be a national emergency
- Remove protections for transgender people in federal prisons.
- Ensure that states carrying out the death penalty have a “sufficient supply” of lethal injection drugs.

Ensure that states carrying out the death penalty have a “sufficient supply” of lethal injection drugs.
Some context: The EU has been sanctioning the US over this for decades now, first we stopped selling drugs they use to murder people to prisons, then we completely stopped exports, it has gotten so far as to stop exports of precursor chemicals. And it’s not like our pharma companies would mind they’re actively on the ball regarding this, they don’t want to be associated with it either.
If you want to be barbarians at least have the decency to not paralyse people while they die in abject agony but use a guillotine. Heck, firing squad or hanging are more humane than that injection stuff: Literally torturing people to death while making sure they can’t flail and scream.
I’m not saying there will be mass deportation, indefinite detainment, and possibly executions of unwanted people, but they sure are lining up for it. For example ramping up execution of sexual predators, while at the same time labelling LGBT and drag as being predators, just for existing near children…
Like if Elon is a nazi, then we may very well see a DOGE squad hunt down “un-American” people in the darkest timeline.
Just want to point out, executive orders are the easy part. All you need is control of the executive branch for that, and even then federal judges can block any orders they deem illegal (which will ultimately filter it’s way up to the Supreme Court) the real hard part is repealing acts of congress and even harder will be issuing new laws. That requires both the House and Senate to align their priorities and goals and agree on the specific legislation. This was an insurmountable challenge for the Republican party back in 2016-18 to the point where they were largely unable to pass any meaningful legislation
Remember the whole “repeal and replace Obamacare” thing?
Next he’ll be wearing a swastika on his arm and claiming “oh this is just a whirling log, a symbol of prosperity and peace”. And also “oh this is just a very black uniform that Hugo Boss made for me”
“MildlyInfuriating”
Nah, this belongs in “ActuallyHorrifying”
Yeah I figured we had a year or two at least before slowly taking off the mask and showing the true fascism. This was just right out of the gate.
Why not? There’s been no penalty. No widespread social ostracizing, no legal justice, no political punishment… This is who they are, and enough Americans are okay with that that they don’t have to pretend otherwise.
The nazis are wasting no time gloating.
I guess don’t visit the new https://www.whitehouse.gov/ then.
Is that a fucking movie trailer? Wtaf
I wish I could say we just gotta wait 4 years but I wouldn’t believe if I said it. The US is past a fucking joke. Just… Fucking dammit…
Jebus.
Can we just go to the old whitehouse.com?
Careful. That sort of smut is banned in our free country.
Unless you use a VPN. Which they’re probably now targeting…
Whoa now. That’s crazy talk.
Next you’re going to tell me they want everyone to be registered online to our IDs so we can be tracked. I mean to save the children. 🇺🇸
And then you’d prolly suggest something wild like they are putting back doors in our encryption and communication networks so they can track us further … I mean to save the children. 🇺🇸🦅
I suppose then just for fun you’d toss in something utterly insane like keeping track of us with camera systems and arresting us using those cameras - purely on speculation alone… I mean to save the children. 🇺🇸🦅🫡
And you’d be an absolute comedian - Because what are we… some crazy country like all those bad ones we talk about? Nonono. Not only are we free - #Buy God™, we’re gonna save those kids. 🇺🇸🦅🫡🎇🎆🎇
(Yes the spelling was intentional)
Real funny how r/elonmusk official stance is that it was not a nazi salute. And yet the entire place is on complete lockdown. its as if someone just threw 3 sig heils while the cheers got louder only during the gesture.
Am I the only person who thinks that this image should be made into a meme?
Like, keep posting it relentlessly and force the right-wingers to keep constantly seeing it?
How has anyone not done a video of meme music, musks nazi twitter takes followes by side by side of a neonazi salute and musks 3 salutes? Cap it off with “are we the bad guys”
Cmon you fuckers its like an hours work for free reddit karma
The problem is most Trumpists actually like the comparison to Nazis because it either makes them feel badass or just because it makes people they don’t like upset.
I did like someone else’s idea of making a sticker of Musks Nazi salute to stick on Tesla’s and any MAGA signage to highlight exactly what they stand for
You know what the worst part of this is? This run of western fascism doesn’t even have the aesthetics to make it palatable. That “seig heil” was so fucking uncoordinated it made the Australian break dancing lady look like a prima ballerina. Everyone is dressed like they bought clothes from the bargain bin at Ross. The decorations are giving mid-budget state fair.
We’re gonna be ethnically cleansed by old, poorly dressed, unatheltic losers 😭
At least the nazis had cool leather jackets

Not designed by Hugo Boss. They were only one of many manufacturers (the main one ). It was designed by Karl Diebitsch.
Diebitsch
I honestly don’t know if this is a real name or a joke.

It doesn’t feel like you read your own thing
“An der Entwicklung der Schnittmuster für die Uniformen waren die Unternehmen nicht beteiligt.” “Im zentralen Fachblatt für die Uniformherstellung, dem “Uniformen-Markt” tauche das schwäbische Unternehmen “kein einziges Mal” auf.”"
Nobody denies that he was a Nazi, he just wasn’t a large manufacturer or high up in the party machinery.

Nah, there’s gonna be bodies on both sides if they think they’re gonna try any of that shit. Something the KKK Nazi Russian Mafia lover fucks forgot, they aren’t the only ones packing heat.
My biggest fear now, is the Republicans trying to do something so outrageous, that someone of some importance finally fucking snaps. And there’s a legitimate coup. Like Military action on Panama or Greenland, that is legitimate civil war sparking stuff.
Palatable fascism based on looks?
Yeah. Fuck this take. You’re watering it down and fuck that viewpoint.
Both the censorship and promotion of specific art and aesthetics were a big part Hitler’s plans to make fascism palatable in Germany and Italy, if you take one art history course you’d know this. Many public works you can tour to this day in those countries come from that era.
This isn’t a support of fascism, it’s a critique on how empty and vapid the new technocratic class is and how that’s a reflection of our society in general at this moment.
Is this supposed to be funny, or are you a bot trying to normalize how fucked up this is?
Calling me a bot for a dark observation when I clearly state I’m one of the people slated to be in line for the ethnic cleansing sure is a choice. But I’ll explain my reasoning and give you the good faith you didn’t give me.
Art and aesthetics were a big part of Nazi Germany. Many Nazi Party Germans got to look at beautiful works of art and enjoy public works in the Greco-Roman style as they were supporting shipping of Jewish people and minorities to concentration camps. The technocrats this time around haven’t even given their supporters that. Instead we get infighting and outrage on social media.
That’s what my comment was making fun of.
